About Cooked soya chunks
Cooked soya chunks, derived from soybeans, are a high-protein, plant-based food commonly used in vegetarian and vegan recipes worldwide. These textured vegetable protein pieces are made by extracting soy oil and processing the remaining soy flour into small, chewy chunks. Originating primarily from Asian cuisines, they are versatile and absorb flavors well, making them suitable for curries, stir-fries, and stews. Nutritionally, soya chunks are an excellent source of protein, fiber, and essential amino acids, offering a low-fat alternative to meat. They are also rich in iron, calcium, and magnesium. However, they can be highly processed and may contain phytoestrogens, which some studies suggest could affect hormonal balance if consumed excessively. When prepared with healthy cooking methods and balanced with other wholesome ingredients, soya chunks can be a nutritious addition to a well-rounded diet.
